Answer:
5.25
I think that's it but km really sorry if I'm wrong so...
Explanation:
6km/1 hr= 6km per hour
9km/2 hr= 4.5 km per hour
6km/1 hr+4.5 km/1 hr= 10.5km/2 hr
5.25
We have the following equation for height:
h (t) = (1/2) * (a) * t ^ 2 + vo * t + h0
Where,
a: acceleration
vo: initial speed
h0: initial height.
The value of the acceleration is:
a = -g = -9.8 m / s ^ 2
For t = 0 we have:
h (0) = (1/2) * (a) * 0 ^ 2 + vo * 0 + h0
h (0) = h0
h0 = 0 (reference system equal to zero when the ball is hit).
For t = 5.8 we have:
h (5.8) = (1/2) * (- 9.8) * (5.8) ^ 2 + vo * (5.8) + 0
(1/2) * (- 9.8) * (5.8) ^ 2 + vo * (5.8) + 0 = 0
vo = (1/2) * (9.8) * (5.8)
vo = 28.42
Substituting values we have:
h (t) = (1/2) * (a) * t ^ 2 + vo * t + h0
h (t) = (1/2) * (- 9.8) * t ^ 2 + 28.42 * t + 0
Rewriting:
h (t) = -4.9 * t ^ 2 + 28.42 * t
The maximum height occurs when:
h '(t) = -9.8 * t + 28.42
-9.8 * t + 28.42 = 0
t = 28.42 / 9.8
t = 2.9 seconds.
Answer:
The ball was at maximum elevation when:
t = 2.9 seconds.
First, we must find the vertical distance traveled upwards by the ball due to the throw. For this, we will use the formula:
2as = v² - u²
Because the final velocity v is 0 in such cases
s = -u²/2a; because both u and a are downwards, the negative sign cancels
s = 14.5² / 2*9.81
s = 10.72 meters
Next, to find the time taken to reach the ground, we need the height above the ground. This is:
45 + 10.72 = 55.72 m
We will use the formula
s = ut + 0.5at²
to find the time taken with the initial velocity u = 0.
55.72 = 0.5 * 9.81 * t²
t = 3.37 seconds
